Adam Dwyer’s humsble Friday knock-off beer has ended in full-blown relationship damage control.
The 29-year-old local sparky from Nelson had confidently told his girlfriend Tegan Ford he’d “just be having one” with the boys after work Friday, then would make his way to hers — a promise now as empty as the dozen beer jugs he helped polish off.
Dwyer’s downfall began with a simple “Ah well, might as well have one more, ay.” he said to his co-workers, which is where things escalated rapidly.
His girlfriend Tegan, who had only heard from Adam via text, spoke to our reporters.
“He said he’d meet me for dinner at 7 last night” said a fuming Tegan Ford, sitting alone at her flat.
“At 8:30 he said ‘five mins away’ and then I didn’t hear from him again until 10:52am this morning, when I got a text saying ‘soz babe got carried away il make it up to u’. So romantic. Ugh, why am I with this tool?”
Adam, however, remained upbeat about the situation.
“Yeah nah it just escalated a bit aye,” he said from his mate Cam’s couch, where he woke up still wearing his hi-vis vest.
“Nothing wrong with working hard all week and having a few with the lads after work. Can’t she see that’s perfectly normal? Man, she just needs to chill out.”
Tegan then told our reporters she had ignored his peace offering of brunch.
More to come.
